Oh,Yeah! Happy days !!!
Some of my favorite tv shows are back : Scandal ,NCIS: Los Angeles ,Revenge and Glee . Algumas das minhas séries favoritas já estão de volta !!!!
I've become addicted to some of the new fall tv shows like Elementary,Made in Jersey and Revolution. Alem do regresso de velhos conhecidos o Outono é ainda marcado pela estreia de novas series algumas das quais já estou fã !
Guilty-pleasure TV, the name is Revenge. There hasn't been a nighttime soap opera this cool since the early days of Dallas. The filthy rich at play in the Hamptons get a big dose of payback from Emily Thorne (Emily VanCamp). Watching Emily — a steel fist inside a velvet designer evening dress — face off against ice queen Victoria Grayson (the marvelous Madeleine Stowe) is the most fun you can have with a bowl of popcorn in your lap. Special kudos to Ashton Holmes as the Creepiest Best Friend in the World.
“Ever since I first saw you, I knew. There was something about you, and I couldn’t put my finger on it… until now. Look, sometimes, you get a boat out on the open water, and you catch a wind and the sails fill and she comes to life under you and it feels like more than just wind and water and vessel, it feels like there’s something else going on. Something pulling you forward, and surrounding you at the same time. Am I makin’ any sense?" “You’re making perfect sense. It’s just… you’re saying it to the wrong girl, Jack. I’m seeing Daniel; I thought you knew that.” “I know, I know, and normally I wouldn’t do anything like this. But I feel like this feeling comes once or twice in a lifetime, if we’re lucky. Tell me I’m alone in this, tell me I’m alone in this and I won’t bother you again.” “I’m so sorry, Jack.” — Jack and Emily. Revenge.
British actor Josh Bowman stars in the new tv show Revenge as the sexy stud and “tragically privileged” Daniel Grayson.
Don't be deceived by the first few minutes of the Revenge pilot! Though it appears Daniel Grayson's journey has a very clear cut destination right from the jump, actor Josh Bowman confided that things are not quite what they appear on the surface. For the show, and for the character himself. It's a good point to make, considering when the audience meets him, we see him through Emily Thorn (Emily Van Camp)'s eyes-- a woman who has preconceived notions about the wealthy elite of the Hamptons. But as she gets to know the true person under the fancy clothes and behind the famous last name, we all learn the truth. For Bowman, that truth is "trapped in this kind of bird cage where he wants to break free, and he can kind of see out, but he's kind of angered by how he's kept in." Daniel may be dark and brooding and just a little bit misunderstood. In other words, he may turn out to be the true underdog-- the guy who seems to have it all on the outside and has been dubbed "the golden boy," but who is struggling harder than anyone else. "He doesn't care about the money; he doesn't care about the status or anything in the society," Bowman teased, noting that Daniel doesn't want to be in the socialite world, but he is sort of forced in by his mother. "So when he meets Emily, he kind of connects with her on a deeper level." But Daniel is still very much a part of Emily's plan-- a plan that sees her using him as a prop or a pawn to get to some others, namely his mother Victoria (Madeleine Stowe). Going in to their relationship, she never thought about any real feelings he might develop for her, but more importanly, she never thought about any real feeling she might develop for him. Complications will certainly arise when she finds herself charmed by Daniel (even though Bowman doesn't keep his real accent in the project, it's hard not to be charmed by him!) but still pulled from another angle by a long lost childhood friend (Nick Wechsler's Jack Porter) who may have been who she was meant to be with. "It does become some form of a love triangle, and it's going to be very interesting to watch. Daniel is this person who catches Emily off her guard because he's not the person she thought he was off the surface...It's this kind of classic return to these kind of soap operas where it's much more than a guilty pleasure," Bowman promised.
Revenge may give me something I didn't realize I'd been missing:
A glamorous drama with rich, beautiful people in a gorgeous setting looking to do one another harm. The show harkens back to the prime time sudsers of the 1980s and I think I'm going to enjoy the ride. Emily Thorne is a beautiful, wealthy, young woman with a mysterious past. When she was a child, her father was framed by some very powerful people and ended up dying in prison. Emily, or actually Amanda back then, was sent to social services and must have had a rough time of it because we later see her getting out of some type of juvenile detention center.
In an added twist, her father was able to leave her with a fortune, which gives her the means to change her name, move back to the Hamptons, and seek her revenge on the people involved in destroying her dad.
Emily VanCamp really sells this show. If she were too cold we wouldn't care. If she were too sweet it wouldn't seem plausible. But Emily is a delicious combination of innocence and evil. Revenge may not be for everyone. It could be too soapy for some, but I liked how unapologetic this show was about that. This is a continuing drama about sex, lies, greed and revenge. What more do you need to make entertaining TV?
